Saint Tropez Guided Tour and Tarte Tropezienne Tasting

About this tour

A local guide who's lived in Saint Tropez their whole life takes you through the village's hidden corners—the working port, maze-like old town, and Place des Lices where locals still gather for Saturday markets and petanque matches. You'll learn about the Bravade, one of Provence's most enduring traditions, then settle into La Tarte Tropézienne pastry shop for the town's signature cream-filled tart paired with your choice of drink. Two hours total.

What to expect

Your guide leads a steady pace walk through the working parts of Saint Tropez—not the yacht-lined postcards, but the everyday village where residents live. You'll see the port rhythm, wander narrow old-town alleys, and arrive at Place des Lices where market stalls or petanque players might be in action depending on the day. Midway, you'll sit down at the pastry shop with your chosen drink and a warm Tarte Tropézienne: a brioche-based tart filled with two creams. The conversation drifts to local stories, the Bravade religious processions, and what ties the community together.
